This weekend, A pedal excursion is in the works. For many of you out there pedaling pleasure will be had, be it on the pavement, gravel or perhaps your kitchen. Awesome! It's gonna be stellar outside and cycles will be out in droves.

But for our little gang of rag-tag individuals (and hopefully some new faces) The plan still stands Stan. Meet 11am-ish. Downtown Blue Line. Pedal Excursion to Follow. At a nice Chatty-Cathy pace, with sudden bursts of glory because people that commute can be Freaky-Fast as well. And yes, that is a shout out to you Roadies who I'm sure are eager to hit the pavement after all the sweat that has been poured out on top tubes with miles spent in the basement to the tune of old Giro's or the morning traffic report with Jim Siedlicki.

*Hint Sarcasm.Hint Sarcasm.Hint Sarcasm.*

If you are wise cracker and enjoy waking up early and stuffing your face with food like most of the general population. Then I cordially invite you over to my humble abode for some hearty eats of the breakfast persuasion. It will most likely be eggs,toast,salted butter,and hash browns. But who knows it could also include hot cross buns or Steel Cut Oats, ( yes I'm talking to you Brady of Steel) so you don't really wanna miss this.

EB:I think anonymous just warned you of a potential burgle. Maybe a booby-trap is in order.Anyway...I may not make it for b-fast, but I'll be riding past your casa en route to Blue Line. Perhaps I try and time it hook up with you and others on the way. I'll try and time my arrival around 10:15'ish. If you're gone, I'll see you at Blue Line. I'm saving my coffee consumption until I get there, so I may be grumpier than normal.

Anonymous: I appreciate your Motherly concern, However I'm a big boy and I'm well aware of the text I print on this page. In concern with my House, well to be brutally Brunt (and no, I don't mean Blunt) with ya- I Love my neighborhood.I know it quite well actually.

With that said, I've had close calls with some folks in my hop-scotching round this neck of the woods. I've been tackled off my bike and forced into a street fight, I've been chased, heckled..............

But, I genuinely value your words whether you mean them or not, and really appreciate & chuckle about the nature of this odd comment.

I'm enjoying the attitude on Pedal-Omaha, EB. You had me at Steel-Cut oats. And speaking of pinhead oats and pedaling to the blue line or to BM... I, BM, BM before pedaling. How's your house's plumbing anyway? You got a good plunger?! Anyhow, I likely won't be joining use guys for breakfast.

In fact, unless I rearrange my schedule, I may not be joining at all. Don't count me out. I'll check in again later tonight.

I'll try to make there for breakfeast. I'm so stoked for this ride. I think that my body is going to hate me on Sunday but it's all worth it and I'm not planning on doing anyhting except for watching the game and drinking some beers.
